What is that supposed to mean?????

Ok so how does one prepare
Seeing you raised the statement

It means what it says.

Read it again.

You seem to have done that by your second statement. One makes statements, by the way. One does not raise them.

To prepare, is to prepare, before spending money in the share or other markets.

A good place to start is in this forum, by reading specific threads on topics that may interest you.

Then paper trade, that means pretend trade, in a sector or stock that interests you.

And then ask questions for which you do not know the answer, before making statements.

I'm told the Minimum trade the ASX will except on the Initial buy of a stock is $500
Then you will be charged a brokerage fee on top

Someone on here might verify this

In saying that I was told there is a way of trading a fee dollars at a time??
Warrants I think its called ????

Still to investigate this

Hi Nev, and welcome! :) Things can go off topic in this thread which is really just basic introductions. Best to keep asking these questions in the most relevant thread, as you have been in the 'all your questions answered'. Cheers, kennas

In saying that I was told there is a way of trading a fee dollars at a time??

If Loss of Money is your concern.

(1) This is not for you. (It happens a lot).
And OR.
(2) Paper trade (No money)

Forget derivatives (Warrents).

Hi all,

I joined this forum a few weeks ago and have been very impressed at the quality and quantity of information that goes through here.

I'm very new to the stock market, having only just created an account with commsec a few weeks ago, however I've been doing general research for the past couple years with the past few months being more intense and focused on 15 companies. I'm seriously considering making my first purchase of shares in a couple of the companies I've been following a while.

I'm a 22y/o (almost 23) water engineer working in a consultancy in Brisbane.

My aim is to achieve a better return on my money than what I could get at the bank.

Thanks!

Welcome to ASF mate, enjoy your stay!
 
Hi All,

New to be a member but old as a guest and snoop around the threads and take note on what is being said.
Been in the stock market 6 months with 10k that I saved over the years. 3k in Linc energy. 2k in FMG, 2.5k in PDN and 2.5k in FXL. Complete noob when it comes to understanding the acronym's of the market.
Linc energy is out performing all with some interesting times ahead, so that is something ill sit on wether they out perform or under perform in not phased just a very interesting stock. I fell upon that stock from reading threads on here. From what I read things looked positive and at 0.63c a share I thought a bargain. FMG was just a decision based on I like Andrew forest and is a common stock spoken about on tv and I knew about the rail line that was in being built. PDN who knows? I think due to having interest in India and there economy on nuclear? FXL was only the fact that they have a service in providing leases and finance to business and a few other things. In my mind I just see them performing well in the next few years. don't ask me why.

G'day ASF. Not new to investing but first time on a stock forum. Liking what I've read/seen here so far.

Am on the wrong side of the 'hill' and am a very small minnow with a (mainly) passive contrarian strategy.

Happy trading!
